Form and Movement Valentine

It’s the way the new ballerina

dances the old ballet

that matters most to them

not the ballet danced

so many times before

but for us it’s the new

movement itself

we go looking for

the elixir after all the past

we must get over

face it at least

some parts we’ve kept

the preservation

of a certain slovenliness

and refusal to rest.
